[QUOTE="Powerzone, post: 375500, member: 9157"] Yes, that's right. With the LSD, we recommend using SAE50 monograde engine oil for non-hypoid gears (FWD), and SAE80/90 gear oil for hypoid gears (RWD). FYI, Honda MT uses normal engine oil. BabyGodzillaGTi-R: The LSD steel material is hardened but is softer than the original sun gear, so it should wear out to preserve the sun gear. It's akin to the clutch friction disc that you'd have to replace after it's worn out. But it'd take quite a long time to wear out, and since the spring action is kind of self-renewing the effectiveness of the LSD plates, a little wear and tear doesn't actually lessen the grip. The spring rating selected is based on coil size, free length and compressed length, and wire diameter. It's not possible to overgrip the gears as the contact area is relatively small, so a harder spring is more effective. FYI, the viscous LSD is normally installed between the front and rear axle and is in the so-called 3rd diff. We don't normally find it in the front or rear diff that are more commonly fitted with the Torsen type or clutch type. BTW, a diff that already has an LSD cannot be fitted with our kit. [/QUOTE]
